Privacy Policy


Your privacy is critically important to us. At BigShrink we have a few fundamental principles:

  • We don't ask you for personal information unless we need it.
  • We don't share your personal information with anyone except to comply with the law, develop our products, or protect our rights.
  • We don't store personal information on our servers unless required for the on-going operation of one of our services.

If you have questions about deleting or correcting your personal data please contact us.

BigShrink is operated by SailorSams.com, LLC. ("SailorSams") and operates several websites including SailorSams.com, BigShrink.com, and AllSamsMarine.com. It is our policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.

Website Visitors


Like most website operators, SailorSams.com collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. SailorSams.com's purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how our visitors use our websites. SailorSams.com also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on blogs and products. SailorSams only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that commenter IP addresses and email addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators where the comment was left.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information


Certain visitors to SailorSams.com's websites choose to interact with SailorSams in ways that require SailorSams to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that SailorSams gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for an account to provide a username and email address. Those who engage in transactions with SailorSams.com, LLC. are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, SailorSams collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor's interaction with SailorSams. SailorSams does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Aggregated Statistics


SailorSams may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. SailorSams may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, SailorSams does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information


SailorSams discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on SailorSams.com, LLC.'s behalf or to provide services available at SailorSams' websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using SailorSams' websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. SailorSams will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, SailorSams discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when SailorSams believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of SailorSams, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of an SailorSams website and have supplied your email address, SailorSams may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what's going on with SailorSams and our products. We expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. SailorSams takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

Business Transfers


If SailorSams, or substantially all of its assets, were acquired, or in the unlikely event that SailorSams goes out of business or enters bankruptcy, user information would be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any acquirer of SailorSams may continue to use your personal information as set forth in this policy.
